The NFF employee was in-person at the “Tax-Sale” and “Tax-Sale Rehearsal” to ensure the event went off without a hitch. He was available in person to address any queries or issues that came up during the Tax-Sale as part of the support team. He learned the entire end to end business process, in addition to contributing to software development prior to the tax sale and has been a great addition to my team in his capacity as a Developer.
